  • I’ve used ‘KillTheNewsletter’ a lot. And then it hit me. Most email clients have features I want for my feeds (filtering, auto-sorting into folders by keywords, etc.)

    So far, only emacs (forgot extension name) and feedbro (firefox extension) have similar festures to these…

    Hence, I’m yet to try it, but might create an account only for feeds. And then use rss2email (pypi)

    Is anyone else using this tool? I’d love to hear it…




  • Did anyone read the grammar of graphics paper from Hadley Wickham? I kind of enjoyed it a lot, and got to know what’s the power source really. I’m amazed so many software libraries came to reinvent compossibility in such unergonomic ways… But it’s nice to have options.

    I think I might prefer base R over matplotlib though… :p

    I only learnt this recently, but snail depictions were ubiquitous in gothic manuscripts’ marginalia. Oftentimes, with social implications, very much like satire. The snail, being slow and seemingly harmless, simbolizes futility or absurdity of certain endeavors. There’s many interpretations among historians and art enthusiasts.

    It’s difficult to know if this might just be a correlation to age of onset, plus the effect of new project or work. Maybe other graduates of similar careers (i.e. chemists going into big pharma) that doesn’t go into PhD programmes would be a nice control. But there’s no curve there.

    Alas, I know academia is difficult. But I wouldn’t dare drawing conclusions without a proper comparison.






  • This only shows how ignorant on bioinformatic analyses is whoever listed two items on the left. Without effort, I can say… git, bash, python, R-lang, alignment algorithms, UMAP, clustering algorithms, snakemake, nextflow, slurm, amazon web services, google cloud platform, conda, heuristics, more algorithms, deep learning, machine learning, imputing missing values, frequentist statistics, parametric or not, bayesian statistics, mmm… Ok, point given.
